mm/ksm: don't waste time searching stable tree for fast changing page

The code flow in cmp_and_merge_page() is suboptimal for handling the ksm
page and non-ksm page at the same time.  For example:

- ksm page
 1. Mostly just return if this ksm page is not migrated and this rmap_item
    has been on the rmap hlist. Or we have to fix this rmap_item mapping.
 2. But we absolutely don't need to checksum for this ksm page, since it
    can't change.

- non-ksm page
 1. First don't need to waste time searching stable tree if fast changing.
 2. Should try to merge with zero page before search the stable tree.
 3. Then search stable tree to find mergeable ksm page.

This patch optimizes the code flow so the handling differences between ksm
page and non-ksm page become clearer and more efficient too.
